It’s exactly that. We don’t matter because we aren’t in the club. The peasants are just supposed to do what the regional lords want and die in the wars they cause. We aren’t supposed to see through the bullshit. Thats why they keep wages down and make us struggle so we don’t have enough time to think about anything else.
Thank you! Not enough people realize this. Overpriced healthcare and restrictive abortion and reproductive laws ensure oligarchy remains stable. If you have to work 2 jobs just to be able to afford a surgery and/or children you are less likely to have the time nor energy to focus on what the politicians are doing.
Ramp that up with hot button distraction issues that actually have little bearing on people's day-to-day lives and the government and their millionaire/corporate backers can do whatever they want to keep the power in place.
What people rarely realize is that literally nothing is ever illegal or banned. If you want an abortion it will always be available if you have enough money. Want a fully automatic weapon? $20k and $3k in tax stamps will get you one. Cannabis is fully legal everywhere, if you want to pay the right people. They’re not illegal, just very very expensive. The uniparty keeps control and money means nothing to the people who keep them in power. It’s only us who lose our rights. And people will keep voting like it makes a difference.
